WjsnivoTo.v,Supt 59. At tlio open
ing uf IU cession of the house yester
day morning Morse of Massachusetts,
in a brief speech, sought to justify
lits filibustering of Wednesday. During
his talk hi; charged Mr. Mthlan with
lining solely to blame for the refusal
of the house to permit him to put in
the rcconl some newspaper attacks
on Pension Commissioner Lochrcn.
Mr. Fithinn, rising to reply, said
that, inasmuch as Mr. Morse had seen
fit to eritieis) him, lie desired to call
the attention of the house to a rathci
dubious proposition made b Mr.
Moise to him. Mr Morse, when he
(Fithiau) objected to his leave to
print, came to him with honeyed
Words and informed him that he was
a member of the coiimittce on public
buildings and grounds anil intimated
that if he (Fithlan) had a public
building bill lie (Morse) might be ablu
to lio'p him If the Illinois congress
man could see his way clear to with
draw his objection.
"That is absolutely false," shouted
Mr. Morse, striding tu a war-like man
lier toward Mr. Kithian.
"If the gentleman from Massachu
setts denies this statement," Mr.
Kithian retorted, "I have proof to tub
duce that will sa'lsfy any member
of the house. My colleague, Mr.
lio'dicr, heard the conversation "
Mr. Morse bached against the rails
and leplled meekly: "What the gen
tleman says has the color of truth
(laughter) but the construction he
places on It is uuqualllledly false "
"If the gentleman denies my state
ment," yelled Mr. Kithian, shaking his
list angrily at the Massachusetts con
gressman, "he Is wilfully lying him
self." In a minute the house was in an up
roar, but the speaker brought quiet
by pounding his desk vigorously with
the gael and deelailug both gentle
men out of order. This closed the In
cident. After some routine business the de
bate on the election bill was resumed
and (ieneral .John C. Hlaek of Illinois,
ex-commissioner of pensions, took the
lloor in support of the lull.
Mr. Hlaek was followed by Mr. John
sou of Indiana who spoke iigaiuH the
bill, llreckinridgo of Kentueky fol
lowed Johnson in a constitutional ar
gument in favor of the bill and the
house adjourned.

ticipation of interest on government
bonds since liiO was taken in in tho
senate yesterday, and Teller said that
if there was no objection he would not
debate it. Agreed to.'
Tho repeal bill was thon taken up
and Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts, sent
tip to the desk and had lead an edito
rial from the Peoria, III., Journal In
relation to the controversy relative to
tlio part taken by Mr. K.rnest Seyd of
Kngland, in the legislation of ls73.
Tlio Journal printed what purported
to bo a quotation from Mr. Hooper's
sneech In the house of representatives
to contradict the letter of Mr. Seytl's
son In this question the words re
ferring to Mr. Seyd. "Who Is now
here," were attributed to Mr. Hooper.
Mr. Hoar had that i art of Mr. Hoop
er's speech read from tho Congression
al Kecjrd and the words, "Who is
now here," did not appear. "These
words," lie said, "are n deliberate,
violent, audacious, unscrupulous and
Infamous forgery."
Mr. Cullom of II Inols knew tlio
editor of tho Peoria Journal, Mr
ll.trties, and while he was astonished
nt the misquotation ho was sum Mr
llarnes was not personally responsible.
This debate continued for more than
an hour nnd then Mr PelTer of Kan

Mr. PelTer at S:10 reached what hu
denominated the subject of "Parities."
Then ho paused and said that while
he was willing to continue with hi
speech in tho evening and to address
the senate until sunrise this morning,
ho did not desire to exhaust tho pa
